Re: 1M Akrapovic
H'actual images? :headno:
Still looks as good as it did the last time I saw some, I see there's another 1M owner in kent, seeing as you're never on to pick me up, I'm going to have to try and skimp a lift off this chap.
Hi, can we be friends?
I only want a passenger...
Seriously impressive. How long have you been doing this as a business then mate? Full time now?
Absolutely love the car, I've got a proper soft spot for lambo's.

Fridge is meer steps away in the kitchen, there's no need for a tv when you have circlips to wrestle with a whatnot.
It is a domestic dwelling though, don't cha know.

Nice tidy garage dude, at least I think it's a garage? Beneath the blur on those photos I mean? ;)
You're next mission is to make that vice functional, and not ornamental. And buy yourself a bearing press (every garage needs a bearing press)
When I got mine, the heads were "shallower" than a standard tapered wheel bolt. Like the actual hexagonal head.
100% incorrect though, your diagram explains it perfectly so I'd be tempted to send that over.
Will you just take a picture? I think I see what you're saying, but it seems so unlikely, as the bolts that fix the spacer to the hub are normally specially made and quite a specific part of what makes the kit worth it's money.
I installed the blue ones out of the evo in TheEvilGiraffe's ph1 this weekend, the subframes are really nice in the way they're made, sit on the existing sliders etc.
Having those trimmed up to match the original seats would be ever so nice. I really look forward to seeing it.
Those two little changes have done wonders!
Did you buy the spoiler linked?
Get cracking on those seats, I REALLY want to see the result, as if I buy a ph1, I'm pretty sure I'd do the same.
Rather than faffing about with all these crazy equations.. do the following and then come back with an answer....
Fill the car right up... reset the trip counter, use it for a day or two and then go back the petrol station, check trip counter, fill up.
Divide figure in simple actual maths...
Ermmmm, why?????
I drove that car to within an inch of it's life at times, the power lets you really enjoy it, you can really pull it though the bends/roundabouts using the power
Ok, so here you go. Buy these, yesterday.

Trimmed up, new rails, utterly mint.
They even recline, just don't tilt forward...
I imagine ANY half decent trimmer will match standard ph1 fabrics so easily.
My advice, find a ph1 sport seat anywhere you can, just one, fucked or not, it doesn't matter.
Rip the cover off of the seat and take it down to an upholsterers.
Leave the cover with them and ask they to...
